Villa Olmi Resort

While this hotel is a fair distance outside Florence, it is a very comfortable place to stay. The hotel staff was very helpful, and the facility was very nice. Breakfast was good. The free shuttle they run to Florence is nice, but only 4 trips per day; 2 in the am 2 in the late afternoon, and the shuttle is small so space is limited. Taxi fare was about $25 to or from town.

The Manager and the staff are very professional as well fantastic hosts. Great experience and highly recommended. The hotel location is outside Florence but still with a shuttle service available for the guests. The city center is not so far away but to be considered according to the type of visit it is planned. Driving with car make it easier access from highway and parking is not a problem at the hotel.

Wonderful! The staff were superb: friendly, attentive and always willing to lend a hand. The property itself is awesome. It sits within well-manicured and tended grounds. Although close to a fairly busy road, it was generally country quiet. The restaurant was very good: food and service excellent. We had the house pizza margherita our first night as we were too lagged to stumble around anymore. It was excellent. Our room - classic standard - was nicely appointed, with plenty of space and places for our clothes and such, and was kept up very well during our stay. We chose not to rent a car and used the bus (Linea 23A) to get into (Fermata: Park Pino) and back (Fermata: Olmi) from Florence (avg 20 min ride). The bus stops we used were each about 1/4 km from the hotel and easily walkable. We noted only two downsides. First, from the sound of it, all the room baths have whirlpool tubs. I'm sure this is a keen feature for some, but it's a real annoyance when the neighbors pop it on, especially at 23:30 when reveille is at 04:00 the next day in order to catch a morning flight. Second, and this became less of an issue as we grew accustomed to the area and to how things worked, the virtue of seclusion and distance away from things was a bit of hassle. We are the type of traveler that likes to play tourist during the day, then head back to the hotel for a clean-up, nap and drink, and then head back out looking for someplace to have dinner. The round-trip time between downtown Florence and the hotel generally put a damper on that approach. Overall, we (the two of us) highly recommend the Villa Olmi resort. The quiet at night and the Villa Olmi experience (staff, amenities, breakfast buffet, restaurant, and the property) was well worth the daily expense and time into downtown Florence.

From the moment we arrived, being personally escorted to our rooms by the friendly and knowledgeable staff, to the beautiful rooms with attention to detail; the excellent complimentary breakfast on the terrace; to the quiet and beautiful grounds, our stay at Villa Olmi Resort was perfect in every way. We did not want to leave, and hope to return again one day.

From the moment we arrived, with the welcome from the wonderful staff who personally showed us to our rooms, until the moment we left, our stay at Villa Olmi was perfect in every way. Beautiful hotel on gorgeous grounds in a peaceful setting. The rooms show a lot of attention to detail, spacious and comfortable, with excellent maid service. The staff was helpful and caring, catering to all our needs. The complimentary breakfast on the outdoor terrace was absolutely delicious. Our memories of this leg of our family vacation to Italy are our favorite thanks to this beautiful place. We did not want to leave Villa Olmi and hope to come back again one day!

Alle Mitarbeiter waren außerordentlich freundlich. Zimmer wurde mindestens 2x täglich kontrolliert bzw. gereinigt. Frühstück ausgiebig. Ausgezeichnet ist auch der Gratis-Shuttle in die Stadt! Wirklich schöner Aufenthalt!

L'accueil est excellent et le personnel très agréable. L'hôtel est bien situé, le cadre est agréable et la propreté au rendez-vous. Seul bemol au niveau de l'équipement : peu de chaînes de télévision et pas d'espace spa / massage.

L'hôtel mérite ses 5 étoiles, aussi bien le confort des chambres que le personnel est dans le haut du pavé. Le paysage naturel que l'on peut admirer des chambres est une vraie source de bien être. Le rez de chaussée où sont situés réception, restaurant, véranda, salon et bar et accès au jardin sont disposés idéalement. Le lieu où sont pris les petits dejeuners, met tout de suite de bonne humeur, d'autant que l'on trouve tout ce que l'on souhaite en matière d'accompagnements et que la clarté de l'espace est épanouissant. Le restaurant est très correct, les vins très bons et le personnel souriant et à vos petits soins. Comptez 1/2 h de l'aéroport, mais pour ceux qui souhaitent avoir une relative liberté, il faudra louer un véhicule car le système de navette comprend 2 horaires dans la matinée et du moins lorsque je m'y trouvais rien entre 12h et 17h, dernier retour à 18h30. Comptez 15 mn pour rejoindre le centre.
